Friends,
Good Morning and a great feeling of being blessed to see the sunshine this morning.
Just felt like sharing with you that do we ever feel that any or everyone that we meet on a daily basis is important in their way and give them a smile or wish them when passing by them. You know what - we shy away from this when we pass by some person thinking should I or should I not smile or wish them as that they may wonder if we are in our senses or not as we are smiling away at him / her out knowing them. But let me tell you what - someday not knowing that we may need to talk to this person for whatever reason may be. So just penning down a short story that will explain what I am trying to say.
Here we go that - Everyone is Important
“During Mark’s first month of college, the professor gave his students a pop quiz. He was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until he read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?” Surely this was some kind of joke. He had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would he know her name? He handed in his paper, leaving the last question blank.
Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward the quiz grade. “Absolutely,” said the professor. “In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They each deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say ‘hello’”. Mark never forgot that lesson. He also learned her name was Dorothy” .
